benghazi allergy. she has a ve veer benghazi allergy. five days after the attack she was not there to address the american people and she sent out someone whom the president himself had no idea was not involved at all in benghazi. now that she is supposed to speak to the congress about this. she has illness. i'm not going to say she doesn't have one. be happy to give her neurological exam, and absence of that i take her word. but there is something strange about this. she did say ostentatiously, i take full responsibility for the attack in benghazi. she said that during the campaign, which is completely and utterly meaningless. what does that mean? in britain, invasion of falkens, the former secretary resigned over it, though it wasn't his fault. as a matter of principle. if it happens on your watch, you resign. that isn't going to happen in her case, but she won't even speak about it, which ought to be the minimal requirement. that is incumbent on her to do. >> bret: a.b., they have saying she is open to testifying. scheduling issue now
